A little bit about me

I am 52 years old and have been an elementary school teacher for over 26 years. I am retiring after this school year. I love caring for and teaching children. I also am passionate about caring for children not yet in school (infants and toddlers). I love the outdoors and planning activities based on your child's interests. I am very organized and thrive on structured routines. I am very tidy and am willing to do light housekeeping if needed.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m AnnaMarie.
I’m 22 years old and have been living in Wilmington for just under a year—and I’ve truly fallen in love with the community. I currently work as an assistant teacher in a preschool classroom with two-year-olds, but I have experience caring for children of all ages and have been nannying since I was 14.

While I truly enjoy working with my class, I’m now looking for a full-time nanny position during the day that allows me to provide more personalized, one-on-one care. I’m certified in both First Aid and CPR, have reliable transportation, and am happy to undergo any background checks. I’m passionate about creating fun, themed activities that promote learning through play, and I bring a nurturing, energetic approach to every day. Supporting each child’s growth in engaging and meaningful ways is what I love most.

In my free time, I enjoy reading, going to the beach, staying active, and spending time with my dog:)

A little bit about me

Hi everyone,

I'm Nora, a 4th-year Teaching Assistant/Electives teacher at a local Wilmington elementary-middle school. With a decade of experience in babysitting and nannying, I have worked with children of all ages. During a gap year after high school, I had the opportunity to work at a boarding school in England, where I found immense joy in the experience.

Interacting with kids and being a part of their growth is something I truly cherish. Having been actively involved in sports like basketball, volleyball, and competitive soccer for over 10 years, I have a passion for the outdoors and staying active. Being a positive role model and a reliable support for you and your children is a responsibility I take pride in.

If you believe I could be a good fit for your family or have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

I am more than happy to provide reference numbers upon request.
